The Little Mermaid can be found at Langelinje Pier. This bronze and granite sculpture is more than 100 years old, and was a gift from Danish brewer Carl Jacobsen to the City of Copenhagen. It was inspired by a Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale about a mermaid choosing to give up everything about her life in the sea to stay with a young, handsome price on land.

Tivoli Gardens, founded in 1843, is an amusement park that is a must see for all visitors to Copenhagen. The park features a number of rides, including a wooden roller coaster, dating back to 1914, as well as faster rides for keen thrill seekers.

Denmark’s the place where Lego was invented, so your holiday won’t be complete without a trip to Legoland. The park was opened in 1968 and is located in the small regional town of Bilund, which is to the west of Copenhagen. The park is especially good if you’re travelling with children, but is also a great place for adults. There’s an exciting selection of theme-park rides, as well as the world’s largest Lego model which, is an X-wing Fighter from Star Wars.

North Jutland

The best place to experience some of the country’s fantastic landscape is its northern-most point.
